ICOM IC-718 HF BASE TRANSCEIVER
| The New, Easy to Use IC-718
Whether you're new to HF or just looking for a capable second
rig, the IC-718 is for you. It's simple. Buttons for the functions
you use the most are prominent and easy to access. Selecting s
frequency is as easy as punching in the numbers on the large, well
spaced keypad. And you can quickly tune up or down a band with the
auto tuning step feature. It even has a band stacking register to
"remember" your last used frequency. It's superior. The IC-718
features a continually adjustable noise blanker - a feature some
high-end rig's don't even have. The IF shift helps reject nearby
interference. And with the optional
UT-106 installed, you can enhance the superior receive
performance with Digital Signal Processing (DSP). The Auto Notch
Filter minimizes noise without compromising receive audio. A full
100 watts (40 W AM) of adjustable power keeps you on the air for
extended periods. Talk hands-free with the VOX feature. And a
built-in keyer for CW enthusiasts. All this and more in a compact,
easy to carry little package. Simple. Superior. Piece of cake.
 ...the
IC-718 was very easy to operate with a minimum of "manual"
intervention. The Icom IC-718 offers a nice collection of the
more desirable features that are typically absent from
transceivers in its price class.
